1. INTRODUCTION
A Drone has the potential for playing several tasks
wherever humans cannot enter, as an example, extreme
temperature and high altitude policeinvestigationinseveral
industries, rescue missions. ADronehasfourpropellerswith
motors that generate the thrust for lifting the craft. A drone
is also called as the Quadcopter. The basic principle behind
the quadcopter is, two motors can rotate within the
clockwise direction the opposite two can rotate in Associate
in nursing anticlockwise direction permitting the craft to
vertically ascend. While taking the flight with the assistance
a camera we are able to have live streaming and capture
pictures.
For a past one decade, several researchers are done
on the drone or quadcopter to implement it in new
applications. It can survey the areas where human
intervention is not applicable. They are the flying machines
which can be controlled by using a remote controller. It is
also used in weather forecasting, fire-fighting, search &
rescue operations, surveillance and traffic monitoring etc.
Generally, the drone faces the problem of the balancing due
to the uneven weight distribution and atmospheric air flow.
This can be avoided by using PID controller. It is not only
used in military but also in industrial and commercial
applications. The parts of the drone are brushless motors,
propellers, electric speed controllers (ESC), battery etc.
In recent years, the drone has come into
recognition for a number of materialistic uses. In late
2013, Amazon announced a plan for delivery of product in
nearby areas within 30 minutes. They used unmanned
aerial vehicle for delivery which is Called Amazon Prime
Air. So it’s clear that domestic usage of UAV as large future
risk in several fields instead of military. Current aerial
drones are expensive. Search and rescue operations are
expensive as well as dangerous for the rescuers. This
project aims to build a product that functions as an
inexpensive assistance to rescuers searching for people
and things, such as lost children’s in crowded areas.

Santos et.al. (2010) work on intelligent fuzzy controller of
Quadcopter. A fuzzy management is meant and enforced to
manage a simulation model of the Quadcopter. The inputs
are the required values of the peak, roll, pitch and yaw. The
output are the ability of every of the four rotors that's
necessary to succeed in the specifications.Simulationresults
prove the potency of this intelligent management strategy is
appropriate. Figure 1 portrayed the fuzzy controller during
this analysis.

For past one decade, several researches were conducted on
quadcopter for various applications extendingfrommilitary
to traffic surveillance [3].
3. BLOCK DIAGRAM AND BLOCK DIAGRAM
DISCRIPTION:
Fig -2: Block Diagram
Generally, a quadcopter made up of four arms and
four motors which help to lift. Motors are connected to the
ESC (Electronic Speed Controller) for varying its speed.
These ESC’s are connectedto KK2.1.5controllerboardwhich
is connected to the fly sky receiver. The flysky receiver is
connected to Flight controller board gets signal from RC
Transmitter which is controlled manually.
KK 2.1.5 board comes with ATMEL mega 664PA, 8-
bit AVR architecture primarily based microcontroller with
64K of memory. It is straightforward for the beginner to
start out with and has microcode pre-defined in it. While
activating or deactivating the board there's associatedegree
audio warning from the piezo buzzer of KK 2.1.5. It is the
most stable board because it has inbuilt gyroscope, 6050
MPU, and auto level function. This board has eight motor
outputs, five management inputs, associate degree liquid
crystal display, polarity protected voltage device input,
associate degree ISP header, six-axis accelerometer or
gyroscope, and a fuse protected piezo output. The user-
defined signals from K.K. board are processed by ATMEL
644PA IC and these control signals are passed to the ESC's
installed on the frame of the drone.
The KK2.1.5 Multi-Rotor controller is a flight control
board for multi-rotor aircraft (Tricopters, Quadcopters,
Hexacopters). The Atmega644PA IC unit then processes
these signals according the users elite microcodeandpasses
management signals to the put in Electronic Speed
Controllers (ESCs). These signals instruct the ESCs to make
fine adjustments to the Brushless DC motors rotational
speed which in turn stabilizes your multi-rotor craft
The KK2.1.5 Multi-Rotor panel to boot uses signalsfrom
your radio systems receiver (Rx) and passes these signals to
the Atmega644PA IC via the surface, elevator, throttle and
rudder inputs. Once this info has been processed the IC can
send varied signals to the ESCs that successivelyregulatethe
movement speed of every BLDC motor to induce controlled
flight (up, down, backwards, forwards, left, right). ESC
module is the interface between BLDC motor and the
controller. Remote transmitter isconnectedwirelesslyusing
RF frequency of range 2.40 to 2.47 GHz. Receiver receives
the wireless signal and the flight is controlled.

Wireless Camera is used to capture the image and live
video streaming while flying and the control of camera is at
ground. Camera transmitter and receiver are connected by
Wi-Fi module through a mobile application.
4. PHYSICS BEHIND FLYING DRONE:
Quadcopter use for motors with four propellers to
make thrust to offer the craft carry. Two of the motors
rotate counter clockwise and the other two rotate
clockwise. This configuration causes the force from every
motor to cancel by the corresponding motor rotating the
other direction. The different about Quad copters from
other vertical takeoff and landing aircraft (VTOL) is that in
order to control pitch, yaw, and roll the pilot uses variable
thrust between the four motors.
Each rotor produces a thrust and force concerning
its center of rotation, as well as a drag force opposite to
the vehicle's direction of flight. If all rotors are spinning at
an equivalent angular rate, with rotors 1 and 3 rotating
clockwise and rotors 2 and 4 rotate counter clockwise and
hence the angular acceleration concerning the yaw axis, is
precisely zero, that mean there is no need for a tail rotor as
on standard helicopters. Yaw is elicited by mismatching
the balance in mechanics torques. Schematic of reaction
torques on each motor of a quadcopter aircraft, due to
spinning rotors. Rotor 1 and 3 spin in one direction which
is clockwise, where as rotor 2 and 4 spin within the wrong
way, produce opposing torques to control aircraft. A Quad
rotor adjusts its altitude by applying equal thrust to all
four rotors. A Quad rotor adjusts its yaw by applying more
thrust to rotors rotating in one direction. A Quad rotor
adjusts its pitch or roll by applying more thrust to one
rotor and less thrust to its diametrically opposite rotor.
5. PROBLEMS AND ITS SOLUTION:
The Li-Po battery gets drained because of uneven
power supply to ESC and motors of Surveillance Drone. To
solve this problem I have used battery checker which is 1-
8s Li-Po battery voltage tester. This device continuously
display battery display thetotal voltageofyourbattery,then
cycle through and display the voltage of each individual cell.
The unit will monitor your battery. When oneofitcell fall set
voltage level battery checker sound an alarm.
For even supply from Li-Po battery I have used
APM (Advance Power Management) power module. The
APM 2.5.2/2.6/2.8 Power Module is a simple way of provide
clean power from a Li-Po battery. Current consumption is
also maintained and battery voltage measurements, all
through a 6-pos cable. The regulated output is 5.3V and
maximum of 2.25A from 2S-6S Li-Po battery. The deans
connectors are provided with Power Module Which make it
easy to connect with battery and wrapped in shrink tubing
for protection.
6. LIMITATIONS:
 We need to get a license from the office of THE
DIRECTOR GENERAL OF CIVIL AVIATION
TECHNICAL CENTRE, NEW DELHI and to seek
permission from the local Authorities before the
take off of the drone as per specified area and
location of confined assets of rules and regular.
 This licence is valid exclusively for two years.
 People feel conscious about they're being watched
by the government.
 Less aviation jobs are needed to fly UnmannedAriel
Vehicle.
 Li-Po battery are highly dangerous, there is a
chance for it to explode if they are overcharged.
7. RESULTS
The proposed system of Surveillance Drone is
shown in figure 3 with wireless remote controller(flyskyFs-
i6). Camera is attached to the system for surveillance.
Camera gives live feed on mobile app and we can alsorecord
videos and capture images.

8. FUTURE SCOPE:
Future of a quad-copter has very large amount of
application in various fields. The places where not possible
to reached by humans Drone can be used for surveillance. It
will used to carry heavy weights in rescue operations or for
delivery. The range of application is increased because of
more computerized drone and hence commercializationcan
also be increased.
Four ultrasonic sensors are connected to Arduino
and programmed for detecting obstacleinall fourdirections.

When an obstacle is detected the quadcopter takestheother
path to avoid collision by varying the motor speed. Thus
quad-copter may be utilized in day to day working of a
human life.
9. CONCLUSIONS:
There are many places likeindustries,mineshuman
has to risk their life. They have to face high temperature
condition, high altitude work, poisonous gases these are
unbearable by humans. There are many people losing their
lives. So the solution to this problem can be brought up by
using a remote-controlled Drone for surveillance.
This project plays a majorly part at boarder and
defense area for surveillance. It will helpto reducethelossof
human lives by intimating the soldiers about the target.
